The ‘Besserwissers’ never give up! They just pick up any zoo and start their attacks. Luckily most people know these ‘experts’ actually know nothing. They haven’t even visited the zoos and seen the animals with their own eyes. – I was only glad to publish this article!

To me both Flocke and Raspi are looking very good. I wish them a happy Summer time!

A complicated chain from Renee and Laurence to Dagmar and Frank and then to Mervi. So I will thank you all here.
I have been saving the early pictures of Flocke and Rasputin from Hartmuth’s old pages and it is interesting to see how stormy the relationship was from the beginning. It is interesting that in Zoos Polar Bears show the same tendency as other animals to like company and have a mate. In the Arctic as far as we know this does not happen. We know so little about Polar Bears that may be in some places it does.
The criticism of Zoos by those who do not engage with them is meaningless. I am all in favour of a constructive dialogue with the Zoo concerned, but internet trolling helps no one.
Flocke and Raspi look good
